Apr 14 at 10:04 comment added Traveller @Relaxed No worries - the first sentence is a whole paragraph long which is usually a 100% no-no under my personal ‘writing for clarity’ rules :-)
Apr 14 at 8:43 comment added Relaxed Sorry for my comment yesterday, I read too fast, I now understand the self-transfer is only on the Cuban-to-UK part of the trip.

Apr 13 at 21:28 comment added Relaxed The question is a bit confusing, is the transit on the return leg airside or not? Headline question says yes, single stop in the Schengen area suggests it might be but then you mention a “self-transfer”? Does the person also require a visa for airside transit?
Apr 13 at 15:07 comment added Mark Johnson @Traveller Since it is truthfull itinerary, it would seen as credible since the return portion requires a second valid Schengen visa.
Apr 13 at 14:39 comment added Traveller @MarkJohnson Thank you, would requesting a double entry visa from Spain be seen as credible since on the homeward trip the traveller will not be entering, or even returning via, Spain? It would be a first-time application for a Schengen C visa so I’m not sure if applying for multiple entry would be more likely to be refused. The traveller has a good travel history to UK and currently has a 2 year validity UK visitor visa, but as you say that doesn’t count for Schengen transit.

Apr 12 at 23:18 comment added Mark Johnson Your (single entry) Schengen visa will be used (and thus no longer valid). A double or multi would work, but not a single. A UK visa is not on the list of alternative valid visas that would be accepted. Flughafentransitvisum - Auswärtiges Amt - Cuba
